Pros

- They hire anybody with no prior experience - Encourage to learn and expand skills

Cons

- Benefits are nice, but they make it very difficult to use them - Management are driven by idealism rather than realism - Constant burn out and mental exhaustion - Too many managers with conflicting rules - Constant change in policies - Blame engineers instead of poor management which resulted in misled engineers - Very low compensation compare to market and no opportunity to increase wage - Very high turnover rate, constant new engineers coming in

Pros

Unlimited PTO was a nice perk

Cons

They micro managed people a lot, are not good with documentation so any new hire has to learn as he goes and guess or ask a lot of questions to figure out system

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback, it is appreciated. We’re happy to provide Unlimited PTO, and glad that you enjoyed that benefit. We acknowledge that there is a learning curve with every job. With a new position, there will naturally be questions and learning on the job. As you mentioned, documentation can be very helpful in this start up phase, and we do emphasize to our teams to keep documentation of standard operating procedures. We are sorry to hear that you feel this was not the case in your experience. We will continue to emphasize this point to our teams. In regards to management, we provide manager training to ensure everyone is starting with a solid foundation, however, each manager’s style of leadership can differ. We encourage all our team members to communicate with their managers to ensure expectations are matching up, as well as getting answers to any questions they may have in regards to documentation and onboarding. We appreciate your feedback, and if you have any additional or specific comments, we are happy to listen and discuss if you would like to email HR@redriver.com.

Pros

There is really no Pros to work for such a horrible company.

Cons

There is no management style, I got hired for a project then quit 2 weeks later, the manager was horrible, never give you a chance to talk, basically she said my way or the highway. She would tell you how the company have a great culture and there is no “I” in it just we, but the reality is a complete opposite. She would talk and talk and talk and you have no way in hell a chance to talk back, but when you talk back you will be arrogant and argumentative.
